You may not have heard of Director Anton Corbijn, but you'll soon get to appreciate his work in The American. Yes, we have a Hitman Movie, along with mystery, suspense, and of course, beautiful women. But even though we have all the elements for a typical formula, this movie certainly is not one of them.

The Plot

Jack (George Clooney) is a hitman. After recently getting close to being extinguished himself, he begins to think it's time to quit. But of course, there's just one more job his employer requires: a custom rifle, with precision accuracy.

Packaging

Packaging for The American is the standard Viva / Elite Blu-ray case chosen by Focus Features, which is my preferred type of case, and is not the flimsy Eco-Cases. Hopefully, the packaging won't change over time, but I cannot guarantee it.

Screencaps

You know, this is one fine-looking film. I'm really surprised it doesn't get as high of a rating. But who cares about the other guys, I like it.
